Universal Remote Control Codes

My elderly parents lost their remote control for their TV. They bought a Sony Universal Remote Control. I am the one trying to figure out how to program the thing. I am totally frustrated. There are thousands of codes to go through. I even did the one for the TV they have. Nothing is working. I still have tons more numbers to try. What can I do?

All of the universal codes are listed on the UK website for their helpline. www.skymediauk.co.uk. If the code listed does not work, its likely that the remote control is too old and was manufactured long before the TV.

I bought a jumbo remote to program my rca tv/vcr(older) and can not get it to accept codes. I wanted to have this operating so my elderly father can use it but his daughter now feels brain dead because she can not get it to do the job. Help. carolschmelzer@hammontonps.org
